Started by sidin · 6 months ago

So there I was the other day with the missus, Pastrami and a friend at the Hard Rock Cafe here in Worli. Some of you know Pastrami who makes frequent appearances in this blog in a suave speaking role.
He is this smart, rich investment banking types who makes truck loads of money by doing somet ... Continue reading »

  • Your presence obviously induces fear in ambitious middle managers. They lose their mojo and start making mistakes. I have a similar effect on baboons and chimpanzees.
  • I am not interested in sacking small fries like boss or ceo. What about the entire company ?? Confident Lock kiya jaye ?
    Ping me if ur ready to the offer ;)
  • Quite hilarious.

    The HRPros from THAT bank, I tell you. "Let's get it done", indeed :))
  • Hillarious. Four on four...super score. one eg of boss quitting on his subordinate (or coz of him). Mostly its the other way round. :)
  • Sidin, you are a regular riot. Cogita Ergo Lump - hahahahahaha. I love your writing, such a relief on this blogsphere, truly. Power to you, man!
  • Nine months, did you say!? Makes it look like you work in a uterus or some such thing ;)
  • Dude!

    what happened to your "One post a day" thingie?
  • The second guy made a minor modification in the weekly sales reports where he mistakenly typed “revenue” where it should have said “cheque no.”....... W0000T !

    Priceless.
  • I like your posts! Just a small query! Are you the one who wrote the diary of an MBA? the kujumbinana stuff
  • Lovely LOL :)
  • Hey Sidin, this new redirect thing from blogspot is a bit frustrating. One of the commenters here asked if you wrote the "kujumbinana" article, so I googled the word 'kujumbinana' and obviously, your old post was the only thing that turned up, but there was no way I could read it, because every 5 seconds it would redirect me to your new homepage.

    As they said in the movie "Guru" enthu pandaaram aanu ithu?
  • good work

    i might be needing ur services real soon!

  • Hi, Sidi.

    This is scary. I've had the exact same experience, though mine seems to have larger ramficiations.
    Boss#1 - Fired for questionable integrity issues. Company bought over. Co-workers given large bonus.
    Boss #2 - Transferred to dead-end division. Company bought over. Co-workers promoted.
    Boss #3 - Asked to leave. Entire remaining division poached by competitor at 50% salary increase and grade upgrade.
    Boss #4 - Won full scholarship to Europe's best MBA school. Entire office transferred to new location.
    Note - the 2 effects are completely unrelated, but happen in every place I work.

    So remember - if you enter the eject-o-boss market, I have a better product.
